[b]Life After Hogwarts:[/b]
Post-school existence had high hopes for Albert. Having been a noticeable star of the Quidditch pitch during his time at school, he was tipped to go into the sport straight after his NEWTS, and this became true. He joined the Appleby Arrows aged just eighteen, and, though he was not the best player on the team, his joining coincided with more competent management and, frankly, more luck than they'd had in years; his new face became synonymous with success within the Arrows' fans' community, but, as the team went from strength to strength (and Albert only improved his skills) he became known to the wider public as both a force to be reckoned with and the face of the young generation of Quidditch players. This life continued for five years, until it all came crashing down – literally. An injury during a particularly risky maneouver with the complication of both bludgers' involvement resulted in him falling straight off his broom, and, in landing, completely obliterated his hip and most of his left leg. Healers managed to fix the worst of the problem and he has no trouble walking with a bit of help from a stick and just about fly a broom, but his Quidditch days are very much over.
Discounting time spent recovering, which is never fun for anybody, his life went rapidly downhill. Though his background meant he would never really struggle financially, his hobby and sporting acclaim were dead. Journalists approached him for a few months to tempt him down a trashy life of kiss-and-tell celebrity, which he rejected reluctantly – by now, with help from a pair of spectacles, his face is unfamiliar to all but the most avid Arrows fan. Eventually, he got back on his feet, but remains unsteady; he pulled in a few favours and exploited his name a little, to swing a job at the headquarters of the British and Irish Quidditch League, where he has been working since. He is well-connected with his contacts in the Quidditch 'industry' and with the well-respected pedigree of the Bellamy and King families, and so is frequently to be seen socialising and hobnobbing with the elite in society – of whom he probably still is one.
